8. Pay attention

Each student is expected to arrive on time, prepared for class and in an orderly manner.

Students should begin answering the Do Now question as soon as they arrive.

Students will complete an exit ticket (that I will post in our zoom chat) before dismissal

• Chromebook or other device must be charged.

You are expected to come to class prepared every day. Inability to participate due to lack of preparation can impact your participation grade as well as understanding of material in class. If students are consistently unprepared, consequences will follow.

Missed Work: YOU are responsible for making up any and all classwork and homework you may have missed due to a school related or other absence. You will have 2 days for every 1 day absent to turn in any missing work. It will benefit you to complete work as soon as possible if a test/ quiz is coming up soon. **Same late homework policy applies here. BE RESPONSIBLE- check Google Classroom, ask me in advance, talk to your classmates and try to make up your assignments as soon as possible.

Missed Quiz/Test: Schedule make-up as soon as possible. **If you are absent on the day of a quiz/ test, expect to take the quiz/ test on the day you return**

Cutting Class: You will automatically receive a blue slip referral to the Vice Principal. You will receive a zero for any classwork/ homework of that day. All work you miss will be counted as a zero.

Late Policy: You are expected to arrive to class and be in your seat by the time of the bell. On your 2^nd and 4^th lates, you will get a blue slip. On your 6^th late, you will lose credit for US II for this semester.

The current grading system is 50% major & 50% minor assignments. However, they are working on releasing a new category for grading which would include class attendance and participation.
